Hey, how cold 7 00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:21.760 do you think it needs to be before they delay 8 00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:24.760 the start of school or cancel school? I get snow, 9 00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:28.000 I get that, the slippery streets. I am all for that. 10 00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:30.320 I gotta tell you what, early in my career I 11 00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:33.600 handled this case. It was so heartbreaking. This most beautiful 12 00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:37.200 six year old boy, just to just the sweetest boy 13 00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:40.280 you can ever imagine, killed outside his elementary school in 14 00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:44.359 Boulder because sheets were street you know, they were just ice. 15 00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:47.439 And then the city had failed to stand at the intersection, 16 00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:50.359 even after being warned that cars were sliding through that 17 00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:55.039 intersection near the school. And so this precious little boy, 18 00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:58.640 this single mom's only child, was killed. And I took 19 00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:00.399 that case on. We took it all the way to trial. 20 00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:03.280 We're blessed with a very wise jury. We won the case. 21 00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:07.239 The streets of Boulder became safer for kids. But so yeah, 22 00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:10.760 I've always believed if you've got conditions that make it 23 00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:13.319 dangerous for the kiddos to be out there, and snow 24 00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:15.239 and ice can do that. Right. Yeah, air on the 25 00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:18.799 side of safety. But cold, how cold do you think 26 00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:21.680 it should need to be before they're delaying the start 27 00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.560 of school. I'd love your thoughts on that. Three h 28 00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:26.159 three seven one three eight two five five the number 29 00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:29.560 techs d an five seven seven three nine, Going to 30 00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:34.040 talk about that, going to talk about DPS. DPS which 31 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:36.680 seems to go out of its way to find creative 32 00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:39.599 ways to make it clear to the public that it 33 00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:44.159 does not care about the kids, yet really tops itself here. 34 00:01:44.519 --> 00:01:49.280 Denver Public Schools sues Trump administration to block immigration raids 35 00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:53.359 at schools. This Jessica Seemen, very good reporter at the 36 00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:55.840 Denver Post. Denver Public Schools sued the US Department of 37 00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:59.239 Homeland Security Wednesday in an effort to block federal immigration 38 00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.280 agents from making arrests at schools. 39 00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:01.519 Now. 40 00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:07.439 Wait, a second administration has said, Hey, we're only going 41 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:11.560 out to arrests people who've committed other crimes. So now 42 00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:16.360 what DPS is saying to all the criminals out there is, hey, 43 00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:19.800 we will give you shelter. We will give you refuge 44 00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:23.080 criminals out there, people who have committed other crimes, not 45 00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:25.560 just folks here illegally, people who have committed other crimes. 46 00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:29.039 Please flee to our school. Come to our school, you know, 47 00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:33.599 place yourself inside the safe walls of our school. What's 48 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:36.360 saying adult would do that? You have the most precious 49 00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:39.919 cargo on earth on board in these kids. Why would 50 00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:43.319 you do anything other than send a loud and clear message, Hey, 51 00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:46.680 if you're a criminal, if you've committed crimes, you better 52 00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:49.159 stay out of here. I'll shoot you myself. I mean, 53 00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:52.879 what about protecting these kids? Yet they want to magnetize, 54 00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:55.919 they want to attract the criminal element into their schools. 55 00:02:56.599 --> 00:02:58.520 What's that all about. Well, I think we know what 56 00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:01.919 it's about, right, We've seen this history with DPS. Not everybody. 57 00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:04.919 You have some great, great people within the DPS system. 58 00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:07.800 But when you talk about the powers that be who 59 00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:10.599 really get to run that operation, You've seen it over 60 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:12.800 and over and over again where it has nothing to 61 00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:14.800 do with the kids. The kids are a nuisance. It's 62 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:19.639 about using DPS, using the kids as a platform to 63 00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:22.960 make their own far left political statements. When are we 64 00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:25.360 going to get people in there who actually care about 65 00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:26.759 the kids. And I know there are a lot of 66 00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:29.759 individual teachers and administrators and other good people who really 67 00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:32.360 care about the kids. Again, I'm talking about the powers 68 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:35.840 that be that use the good people, use the kids 69 00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:38.360 just to go out and make their own far left statements. 70 00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:41.319 And that's all this thing is. How does this help 71 00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:44.759 the kids? How does this help make the kids safer? 72 00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:50.560 You know, it's again it's like Bennett and Hickenlooper backing 73 00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:54.280 this bill that encourages people here illegally to vote by 74 00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:57.719 saying ice can't detain them at a polling place, and 75 00:03:57.759 --> 00:04:00.280 that is that is not a public it is a 76 00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:05.520 goal safety issue. But that's a safety of our democracy issue, 77 00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:10.080 because obviously you can't have people here illegally voting, and 78 00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:12.879 the fact you've got bills like this Bennett Hickenlooper bill 79 00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:17.399 that actively encourage that and protected, Yeah, I mean, it's 80 00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:20.959 it's just madness. You can tell who really cares, right, 81 00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:25.160 Who really cares about kids? Who really cares about us? 82 00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:28.240 Who really cares about our state? And over and over 83 00:04:28.279 --> 00:04:31.000 and over again, now the left is just showing they don't. 84 00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:32.600 And I think the people are getting it, and you're 85 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.120 seeing that in results around the country. Colorado tougher not 86 00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:38.439 to crack, but eventually it will zero three someone three 87 00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:41.600 eight two five five. The number takes d an five 88 00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:43.600 seven seven three nine. By the way, you can see 89 00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:45.279 that bill, because a lot of people say, on Aunt, Dan, 90 00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:48.959 you might must be exaggerating that or misunderstanding it. No, 91 00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:51.279 you can see the bill where Ben and Nikoloper are 92 00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:56.720 trying to protect people here illegally at polling places, saying 93 00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:59.279 you can't be touched there. Go to at Dan Kaplis 94 00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:01.279 at Twitter. Can see the bill, Please send it to 95 00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:04.079 your friends, because again, Ryan, people don't realize it because 96 00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:07.160 the guy's a ghost, right He's almost a literal ghost 97 00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:10.920 John Hickenlooper. People don't realize he's up for reelection right now. 98 00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:14.759 And everybody's got to understand the guy up for reelection 99 00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.519 is trying to make it easier for illegal immigrants to vote. 100 00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:22.120 He wants to pass a bill saying ice can't detain 101 00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:24.759 them at a polling place. What other reason would there 102 00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:27.360 be to be at a polling place? Ryan, If you 103 00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:29.560 run into like a polling place that gives away free 104 00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.480 ice cream, or is there some other reason to be 105 00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:33.600 there other than to vote. 106 00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:36.319 Maybe they would be volunteering to help in our elections. 107 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:40.839 Come up with something that. 108 00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:44.800 Way that would boost public confide instrumentdously so and listen, 109 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:47.600 I understand you've got some good people all over the 110 00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:49.800 map when it comes to what public policy should be 111 00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:52.920 on folks here illegally who are not committing other crimes. 112 00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:55.920 And then we have the left, which has devoted itself 113 00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:59.560 to protecting folks here illegally. You have committed other crimes, 114 00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:04.160 but I think everybody can agree folks here illegally should 115 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.639 not be voting. So folks need to know John Hickenlooper, 116 00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:10.040 who wants your vote for the US Senate in Colorado 117 00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:13.800 in this cycle, wants to make it illegal for ICE 118 00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:19.519 to detain an illegal immigrant at a polling place. So 119 00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:22.279 so much more to talk about this crazy story out 120 00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:25.120 of Columbi, and we'll get to that. I'll probably started 121 00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:26.680 the next segment. I want to make sure we do 122 00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:29.639 it justice. But I know you talked about it on 123 00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:32.720 your award winning show, and if you haven't won awards yet, 124 00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:36.560 you should thanks. But by the way, do we have 125 00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:40.759 a screener today that you're engaged to are otherwise involved 126 00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:43.079 with us? You have somebody more independent. 127 00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:43.399 She shot me down. 128 00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:47.639 That would be Alexa today and the lovely Kelsey was 129 00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:48.720 in yesterday she was. 130 00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:51.800 And I don't want to talk out of school. I've 131 00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:53.959 just got to tell you I've been doing this for 132 00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:56.720 a lot of decades, and I don't think I've ever 133 00:06:56.800 --> 00:07:00.160 before looked through the glass, you know, to get at 134 00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:05.319 my tremendous producer's attention, and seen him engaged in active 135 00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:09.279 physical romance behind the glass. And think about this, that's 136 00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:11.680 a big deal. Thirty years on air by whatever it is, 137 00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:15.040 twenty eight, twenty nine, thirty thirty one. Who cares. But 138 00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:18.160 I've never seen that happening. Uh huh, how often do you? Well, 139 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:19.959 I don't want to go there. But it was just 140 00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:23.040 it was just odd too, and it did happen that. 141 00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:25.680 Don't make this out. This is I'm not trying to 142 00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:28.439 do a funny bit here. I've just exchanged glances and 143 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:34.879 nothing more. Completely cool. Are you denying actual romantic physical 144 00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:36.920 contact behind the glass here? 145 00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:37.720 Yes? Yeah? 146 00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:38.000 Wow? 147 00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:39.680 Well in general, no, I don't know. 148 00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:43.600 No, I know what I saw. I do, I saw it. 149 00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:45.560 It's not going to get your fire A probably gets 150 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:48.279 you promoted. Oh well the next yeah, yeah, it might 151 00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:53.279 be a job requirement in the West wing. Oh wow, yeah, yeah, no, 152 00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:56.600 And she is not. She's not like a formal employee. 153 00:07:56.720 --> 00:07:58.959 So you're not going to have HR on your back. 154 00:07:58.759 --> 00:07:59.480 Or I hope not. 155 00:07:59.560 --> 00:07:59.720 I know. 156 00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:01.399 It'll be quite a plot to us there. 157 00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:03.720 Kelsey. Yeah, Kelsey was helping out yesterday. 158 00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:04.759 She's answering phone. 159 00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:08.560 Yes, answer, she was.

It was because of the old cold 171 00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:39.679 fired furnace quit at Utah Junction School. We would nail 172 00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:41.919 boards through our feet to ski. Oh no, no, sorry, 173 00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:43.679 I haven't made that part up. It was like thirty 174 00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:48.120 degrees probably minus thirty sixty sixty one. Yeah, listen, I 175 00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:50.600 understand it's not the same as back then. I mean, 176 00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:53.320 and every listener is going to flee in the first 177 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:56.039 five seconds this story. But I remember I was in kindergarten. 178 00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:59.120 It was twenty five below I think straight temperature in Chicago, 179 00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:01.559 where it was close to that, and I got up 180 00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:04.360 my usual six in the morning, got dressed, wandered off, 181 00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:06.159 wondered why nobody else was up because I had the 182 00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:08.360 greatest mom in the world and she'd be up every morning, 183 00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:11.519 but figured out she slipped in. Wandered Off walked a 184 00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:14.320 mile or two to kindergarten and was the only one 185 00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:17.279 there other than the creepy janitor who took good care 186 00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:19.799 of me. I mean he just looked creepy. He wasn't creepy. 187 00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:21.720 He was a nice guy. But yeah, it was they 188 00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:26.159 had closed to school. How was I supposed to know anyway? Yeah, 189 00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:30.120 it's a different era, but I get it with any snow, anything, slick, 190 00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:33.559 et cetera. But how cold should it have to be 191 00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:36.320 before they delay or close school? I'd like your take 192 00:09:36.360 --> 00:09:40.200 on that. This texter did not address that. I mean, today, 193 00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:42.399 how cold should it have to be? Eight five five 194 00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:44.080 four zero five eight two five five When we come 195 00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:47.159 back that really strange story out of Columbine. You're on 196 00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:48.399 the Dan Capless. 197 00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:57.600 Show and now back to the Dankapless Show podcast. 198 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.399 I think Putin couldn't be happier. 199 00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:03.960 I tell you, they're drinking Vodkas straight out of the 200 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:05.320 bottle in the Kremlin tonight. 201 00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:07.039 It was a great day for Moscow. 202 00:10:08.080 --> 00:10:12.159 I think Telsey Gabbert's role as Director of National Intelligence 203 00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:15.159 is going to be extremely harmful to our national security. 204 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:17.879 I think many allies are now going to think twice 205 00:10:17.919 --> 00:10:22.159 before they share intelligence with US. I think it'll impair 206 00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:26.720 our ability to gain confidence around the world. It was 207 00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:28.960 one of his worst nominations, beyond a doubt. 208 00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:31.960 Yeah, and this is so sad because did John Bolton 209 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:34.039 set right there, like three feet away from me in 210 00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:36.360 this studio. And John Bolton's done a lot of good 211 00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:38.879 things over the years, but I think what's happened to 212 00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:40.960 him is the same thing that happened at George will 213 00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:43.799 and Bill Crystal and some other folks who've done great 214 00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:47.440 things for the conservative movement, and that is they got 215 00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:50.799 sideways with Trump. You know, they got into a urinating 216 00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:54.480 contest with Trump, and then all of a sudden, the 217 00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:57.360 causes that matter so much much went out the window 218 00:10:57.360 --> 00:10:59.559 at all became personal, and I think it became that 219 00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:02.960 way with John Bolton, and that's sad. And I'm not 220 00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:05.840 worried about his criticism of Trump. Nobody cares obviously, you know, 221 00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:09.519 Trump got elected people John Bolton wanted to didn't. It's 222 00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:11.799 just sad for me because John Bolton has done a 223 00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:14.120 lot of good over the years. He's been absolutely right 224 00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:17.960 about Iran. But he's lost his mind over Trump like 225 00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:19.600 some other really good people have. 226 00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:23.240 And that's sad to see what Trump has said about him. 227 00:11:23.480 --> 00:11:26.399 He wanted to go to war with everybody. He was crazy. 228 00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:29.120 Listen, I think the truth is Ryan, anybody with a 229 00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:32.080 strong will, anybody with an ego, et cetera. If Trump 230 00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:34.840 all of a sudden ripped Ryan shuling, you'd probably be 231 00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:36.000 at war with Trump. 232 00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:36.799 And I'd be laughing, you know. 233 00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:40.519 But but no, it's sad because Trump's right on this 234 00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:43.519 and John is wrong. And if try to get John 235 00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:45.240 on the show, because what I'd like to do, and 236 00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:47.120 I've had him on air bunch, what I'd like to 237 00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:51.360 do is ask him, Okay, John, what's your alternative? Right? Right? 238 00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:55.919 I mean, Trump didn't create this mess in Ukraine. Joe 239 00:11:55.919 --> 00:11:59.159 Biden did and the left did through their weakness, So 240 00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:04.000 what is your alternative here because there isn't one sure 241 00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:06.279 And the last thing I want to see is that 242 00:12:06.440 --> 00:12:09.759 Satan on earth Putin when in any way, shape or form. 243 00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:12.200 But unless Europe's willing to put boots on the ground, right, 244 00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:15.240 Putin is going to gain territory, and Europe is not 245 00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:16.679 willing to put boots on the ground. 246 00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:19.279 What about this compromise where everybody loses? And you know 247 00:12:19.320 --> 00:12:21.840 what a compromise is is nobody gets what they want, really, 248 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:25.039 but that Russia gets to hold on to the donbas 249 00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:29.440 Rage and Crimea. However Ukraine gets to become part of NATO, 250 00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:31.919 which I know that both pants well, I know that. 251 00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:34.600 But the thing is where I'm coming down where I 252 00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:36.879 kind of agree with you, is it would be sad 253 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.039 for Putin to be rewarded for this invasion and this 254 00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:43.360 incursion and if he gets the territory that he conquered 255 00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:47.519 assured to him and Ukraine not joining NATO. I got 256 00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:49.440 to look at it from Zolenski's point of view, what 257 00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:52.120 is he getting out of this? What assurances or protections 258 00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:54.799 does Ukraine get from Russia not invading again? 259 00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:56.480 That's a legitimate concern for them. 260 00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:00.320 And listen that the very sad reality is Putin is 261 00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:03.519 going to gain here, but it's not Trump's fault. No, 262 00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:08.200 it's Biden's fault, and it's Europe's fault. Trump is stopping 263 00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:12.679 the bleeding, which benefits the entire world. It's just extremely 264 00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:15.159 sad that somebody as evil as Putin is going to 265 00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:19.679 gain here. But it does need dan. Unless Europe's willing 266 00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:22.799 to put boots on the ground and defeat the Russian army, 267 00:13:23.399 --> 00:13:25.720 then Putin is going to come out of this in 268 00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:30.360 some way, shape or form gaining and so but what 269 00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:31.840 does Trump for that? 270 00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:34.320 Because Trump's the ultimate dealmaker, I think He's going to 271 00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:35.759 get this done before the end of the month. That's 272 00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.639 my bold prediction. However, what assurances can the United States 273 00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:44.320 can Trump offers a Lenski to safeguard against Russia ever 274 00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:48.720 doing this again without Ukraine joining NATO and having those protections. 275 00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:50.320 Good question. I think there's going to be a NATO 276 00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:52.559 light in there, but there's obviously not going to be 277 00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:56.159 NATO right. The administration has already said that. And I 278 00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.600 hate to see Putin get any kind of concession or 279 00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:01.840 any kind to benefit. It began and blame it on Biden. 280 00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:05.240 I mean, Trump said it and listen for yourself. 281 00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:09.080 I believe that's the reason the war started because Biden 282 00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:11.320 went out and said that they could join NATO, and 283 00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:13.039 they shouldn't have said that. As soon as he said that, 284 00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:14.960 I said, you know what, you're gonna. 285 00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:15.480 Have a war now. 286 00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:17.840 And I was right about that. This is a war 287 00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:22.799 that would have never happened if I were president. I 288 00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:25.639 think Biden is incompetent, and I think when he said 289 00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:29.320 that they could join NATO, I thought that was a 290 00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:32.159 very stupid thing to say. I thought when he said, well, 291 00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:34.879 it depends if it's a minor incursion, oh man. In 292 00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:39.440 other words, it's okay Prussia does a minor incursion, I 293 00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:41.840 thought that was a very foolish thing to say. 294 00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:44.000 That is so very true. We talked about it at 295 00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:45.360 the time. I want to get to some of these 296 00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.159 great texts, Dan. They should never close school for the 297 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:53.120 temp unless particular schools HVAC is not working. So taking 298 00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:54.960 your thoughts on how cold does it need to because 299 00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:57.879 we had a lot of delays, maybe some cancelations over 300 00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:00.639 cold snow, ice, the dangerous stuff. If I get it, 301 00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.759 and I get that deep, deep temperatures can be dangerous. 302 00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:05.919 Kids are out at bus stops. Just want to know 303 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:08.000 from you, how cold should it have to be? Here's 304 00:15:08.039 --> 00:15:10.919 a really important shown Boyd piece. She's so good over 305 00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:14.279 at CBS Denver full disclosure. Used to work with her 306 00:15:14.360 --> 00:15:16.679 consummate journalists. This is on a weird deal. 307 00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:21.679 At Columbine, Sean Boyd uncovered documents the show's school officials 308 00:15:21.720 --> 00:15:25.600 helped an underage student declare herself homeless so she could 309 00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:27.399 move in with a teacher. 310 00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:30.399 Sean Boyd joined us now to talk more honestly, Sean, 311 00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:32.480 she was not homeless, No. 312 00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:36.919 And the school district admits that those involved knew that. 313 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:40.759 Yet they helped a student fill out a federal form 314 00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:44.080 that said she was homeless, then hid it from her 315 00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:47.440 parents so she could move in with a teacher. And 316 00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:49.840 that's just the beginning there, Now. 317 00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:51.960 Ryan, before I played the rest of this, how many 318 00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:56.159 people went to jail, none. 319 00:15:56.559 --> 00:15:59.919 Like this icky feeling about something's wrong? And then as 320 00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:01.720 that progressed, it only got worse. 321 00:16:01.960 --> 00:16:05.519 Heather McCormick says there were red flags at Columbine High 322 00:16:05.559 --> 00:16:09.799 School long before the school district hired investigators who found 323 00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:14.840 teacher Leanne Carney had been grooming a female studentcormick is 324 00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:16.960 friends with that student's mother. 325 00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:20.200 And there wasn't one person who stood up and was like, 326 00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:25.360 something doesn't seem right and reached out to the parents instead. 327 00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:29.480 School emails obtained through an open records request show counselors 328 00:16:29.559 --> 00:16:32.919 purposefully kept the parents in the dark while they helped 329 00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:37.039 their daughter fill out a federal form declaring herself homeless 330 00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:39.720 so she could move in with a teacher. I think 331 00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:44.399 it's really scary that we can take teenagers or children 332 00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:47.919 of any age and just say whatever you say is truth. 333 00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:49.320 We're not going to investigate it. 334 00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:54.000 We're going to take big steps to declare you homeless 335 00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:55.120 without notifying your. 336 00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:59.639 Family, Investigators, say Principal Scott Christie also knew about the 337 00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:03.399 girls plans and didn't tell her parents. McCormick says the 338 00:17:03.480 --> 00:17:07.039 mom stumbled upon the homeless document while cleaning her daughter's 339 00:17:07.119 --> 00:17:11.079 room and later found a letter describing her daughter kissing Carney, 340 00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:14.480 along with thousands of calls and texts between the two. 341 00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:17.640 She says she sent Carne a message warning her it 342 00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:20.799 needed to stop, and then took the calls and text 343 00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:24.599 to the principal, who, she says, dismiss them, telling her 344 00:17:24.839 --> 00:17:29.000 miss Carney takes interest in helping kids navigate their sexuality. 345 00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:32.480 I think the school would have reacted differently had Carney 346 00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:36.960 been a mail control Oh absolutely, Carney quit, but it 347 00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:40.079 would take two years and pressure from the mom before 348 00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:44.240 she lost her teaching license. McCormick says her friend lost 349 00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:47.680 far more when her daughter turned eighteen. She moved out 350 00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:49.119 of state with the teacher. 351 00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:51.759 It's really scary to think that there are schools and 352 00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:55.359 teachers and administrations that are working behind your back, not 353 00:17:55.519 --> 00:17:57.039 in the best interest of your child. 354 00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:00.920 Checho School District sent me a statement saying, obviously the 355 00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:04.079 student did not meet the criteria to be considered homeless, 356 00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:07.599 and the staff involved in this isolated incident we're addressed 357 00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:09.039 as part of the investigation. 358 00:18:09.240 --> 00:18:12.680 My lord, this is insane. Where's Phil Wiser right? Where's 359 00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:16.319 the attorney general? Where's the local prosecute? I mean, what's 360 00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:19.279 going on here? I want to come back. I want 361 00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:21.119 to get your react to this. What do you think 362 00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:25.000 should happen next? How could this even happen? Great reporting 363 00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:27.519 by Sean Boyd here on The Dan Capla Show. 364 00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:40.359 And now back to the Dan Taplass Show Podcast. 365 00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:43.720 Five five The number text d A N five seven 366 00:18:43.799 --> 00:18:45.400 seventh three nine. I'll get to the phone lines in 367 00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:47.640 a second, but text and fuego as they should be 368 00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:49.440 if you just joined us. I don't even know how 369 00:18:49.480 --> 00:18:52.839 to summarize this story. It's so whack. Sean Boyd did 370 00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:55.559 a great job on CBS four with it. We'll replay 371 00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:58.319 it again at some point here. But as I understand 372 00:18:58.359 --> 00:19:03.839 the story, the the allegation is that you had a 373 00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:07.559 teacher and others at Columbine High School and jeff Go 374 00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:13.759 School System who got together and falsely claimed that a 375 00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:17.839 student was homeless, filled out paperwork attesting to that so 376 00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:22.440 the student could move in with the teacher, and after 377 00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:25.480 reportedly she turned eighteen, she then moved out of state 378 00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:28.079 with the teacher. According to the story, your mother had 379 00:19:28.079 --> 00:19:30.599 said she saw a photograph in her child's room of 380 00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:34.160 the child kissing the teacher. So, if all of this 381 00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:41.039 is true, why did the administration cooperate in this? Why 382 00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:44.680 haven't people been arrested and prosecuted? Again, I don't have 383 00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:48.240 access to all the underlying facts. I can't sit here 384 00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:50.559 and tell you that so and so should be charged 385 00:19:50.559 --> 00:19:53.240 with such and such. But anytime you hear a story 386 00:19:54.119 --> 00:19:57.960 that says that a teacher falsely attested a student was 387 00:19:58.039 --> 00:20:00.240 homeless so the student could move in with them, and 388 00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:02.960 then the mother claims she saw a picture of the 389 00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:05.359 student kissing the teacher, and then the student moves in 390 00:20:05.400 --> 00:20:09.519 with the teacher after graduating, and administrators were involved in 391 00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:13.119 the falsification. That's the allegation right at that point, wouldn't 392 00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:15.920 you expect, I mean just literally expect the next line 393 00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:17.599 in the story that you're reading is going to be 394 00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:22.559 And the District Attorney Jefferson County says, X Attorney Phil 395 00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:25.720 General phil Wiser says, why wouldn't you expect to read that? 396 00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:28.599 Ryan said, your understanding of this story and we're trying 397 00:20:28.599 --> 00:20:30.519 to reach on Boyd and get her to join us 398 00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:35.240 on the show that there is not any criminal charge, 399 00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:38.759 there's no criminal investigation. Is that your understanding of this story? 400 00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:38.880 No. 401 00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:42.079
